Just received my 9.3x62 Sauer model 90 from shipping !

any ideas guys can it be pinned ?

Obv I will extract every last penny out of the shippers for this crime against humanity - indeed perhaps a phone call to the Hague maybe in order !

If the bloody rifle worked perhaps summary execution ! and no last ciggie - I am pissed !

Appreciate any and all advice

Man, that sucks! At least there is enough to use as a club on the shipper!

You are a bloody genius - what an idea ....... some knees will not be working soon ...........
 
Would not even consider pinning with that caliber, especially where the separation is...complete new replacement stock without a doubt. What a shame
 
Even if you could successfully glue it together, you would never be happy with it. What a shame. Send her back.
 
They have used a very poorly grained stock to start off with so a replacement should be expected.
 
Looks like they shipped a suppository to me.


Restocked with a lovely new walnut with nice burl.
The emotional damage has been significantly traumatic to warrant a minor upgrade.

If you have a competent gunsmith nearby, get a quote on the installation with proper bedding and the cost of a new stock and go after the shipper for it. Or send her back and hope the second one arrives in better shape.

Hope you did not buy it from Cabela's! I bought the most expensive gun I own from Cabela's in Anchorage AK, the yshipped it in a flin=msy box packed like it was a baseball bat from Wal Mart... but they insured it for full value... I arrived with a broken rear peep and messed up front site... Which they rightfully blamed on Fed Ex... Fed Ex has asked for a letter from them releasing Fed Ex from liability to Cabela's and permission ot pay me for the repairs... It has been almost 3 months and they can't send me a simple letter! It has been sent to their :"legal department"!!! But I won't give up and if need be I have my own legal department.

You might have edited your post on the PH in the Bubye. I know the PH and is a wonderful person and a fmaily man and runs a succesful business in Zim and just doesn't want the attention that the internet offers, the ugly kind.

Hello,

Am I reading your post correctly to say that the Tsavo rifle will be coming out with a composite stock later this year? I ask because I had been looking very hard for a Tsavo, but if there is going to be a composite stock model I will wait for that.

Thank you for your time,

Andrew

Saw your post. Nice. Denver too. Genesee area (just off 70) if ever up this way. Alternatively, do you have a membership at GGC? Whatever, you'll have a wonderful time in Africa. Enjoy.
